Scientific Data Images for Human CD4 Antibody

CD4 antibody in Human PBMCs by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

CD4 in Human PBMCs.

CD4 was detected in immersion fixed human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) using Mouse Anti-Human CD4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB379) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 493-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (green; Catalog # NL009) and counterstained with DAPI(blue). Specific staining was localized to the cell surface. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Non-adherent Cells.

Detection of Human CD4 by Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence

CX3CR1 expressions in affected muscle of patients with polymyositis. The muscle tissues of polymyositis (PM) patients were double-stained with CD4, CD8, or CD68, as well as CX3CR1, and were analyzed with fluorescent microscopy: (A) CX3CR1, (B) CD4, (C) merged (A) and (B), (D) CX3CR1, (E) CD8, (F) merged (D) and (E), (G) CX3CR1, (H) CD68, and (I) merged (G) and (H). Arrows indicate double-positive cells. Original magnification, ×400.

Background: CD4

CD4 is an approximately 55 kDa type I membrane glycoprotein that is expressed predominantly on most thymocytes and a subset of mature T lymphocytes. In humans, CD4 is also expressed to a lesser extent on monocytes and macrophage related cells. Human CD4 cDNA encodes a 458 amino acid (aa) precursor protein with a 25 aa signal peptide, a 371 aa extracellular region containing four immunoglobulin homology domains, a 24 aa transmembrane domain and a 38 aa cytoplasmic domain. CD4 is a coreceptor required for T cell recognition of antigens that are presented by class II major histocompatibility complexes. CD4 has been shown to be a coreceptor of HIV entry and specifically binds gp120, the external envelope glycoprotein of HIV.
